Exparel Clinical Trials
Here are the 6 most popular medical studies for exparel
Procedure
Laparoscopy for Postoperative Pain
Recruiting2 awards1 criteria
Stony Brook, New York
This study will help to answer the question, "Does injecting local anesthetic before laparoscopic instrument ports are placed decrease pain after surgery?" Patients participating will be randomly assigned to receive local anesthetic or saline injection at the site of a laparoscopic instrument port as part of their planned surgery. After surgery at 4 and 24 hours the patient will be asked to rate their pain on a simple chart.
Pain Pump for Hemorrhoids
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 4
Portsmouth, Virginia
This trial is comparing the use of a pain pump (a machine that gives pain medicine directly to the surgical site) to no pain pump, to see if the pump is effective in reducing post-operative pain for people who have had surgery to remove hemorrhoids.
Corticosteroid
Depo-medrol +1 More for Restless Legs Syndrome
Recruiting2 awards4 criteria
Charleston, South Carolina
The purpose of this study is to determine whether, in a randomized, placebo-controlled trial, restless legs syndrome (RLS) can be caused by pinched and damaged foot nerves called neuromas.
Extended-Release liposomal bupivacaine for Postoperative Pain
Recruiting5 awardsPhase 4
Bethesda, Maryland
To study post-operative efficacy of Exparel® for pain control in patients undergoing any Urogynecology surgery involving the posterior vaginal wall using a randomized, double-blinded placebo controlled trial.

Local Anesthetic
Bupivacaine for Graves Disease
Recruiting3 awardsPhase 2 & 3
San Francisco, California
This trial will test if a bupivacaine injection into eye muscles can make them stronger to fix mis-aligned or turned in eyes, strabismus. Different concentrations and formulations of bupivacaine will be tested as well as if Botox added to other eye muscles can help the effect.
Local Anesthetic
Continuous bupivacaine analgesia infusion for Pelvic Organ Prolapse
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2 & 3
Kansas City, Missouri
This prospective randomized controlled study will determine the efficacy of continuous local anesthesia at decreasing pain scores compared to patient controlled analgesia for pelvic organ prolapse procedures including posterior colporrhaphy and sacrospinous ligament fixation.
Local Anesthetic
Femoral Nerve Block Bupivacaine +1 More for Pain
Recruiting4 awardsPhase 3
Boston, Massachusetts
The main objective of the study is to determine if intrarticular injection with liposomal bupivicaine (Exparel) provides better postoperative pain relief and functional outcome following total knee replacement (TKR) than the current standard New England Baptist Hospital regimen of femoral nerve block combined with intraarticular injection of a standard bupivicaine solution.
Liposomal Bupivicaine in TAP block for Postoperative Pain
Recruiting4 awardsPhase 3
Abington, Pennsylvania
This study evaluates the comparison between liposomal bupivacaine versus bupivacaine HCl in Transversus Abdominis Plane blocks for gynecologic surgery on the length of stay in the hospital, total narcotic use, and overall complications rates.
Clinical Trials With No Placebo

Local Anesthetic
Bupivacaine for Graves Disease
Recruiting3 awardsPhase 2 & 3
San Francisco, California
This trial will test if a bupivacaine injection into eye muscles can make them stronger to fix mis-aligned or turned in eyes, strabismus. Different concentrations and formulations of bupivacaine will be tested as well as if Botox added to other eye muscles can help the effect.
Local Anesthetic
Bupivacaine Epidural +1 More for Pain
Recruiting3 awards1 criteria
Long Beach, California
The investigators intend to perform a large randomized trial using standardized obstetrical and anesthetic practice at a single institution to determine the effects of patient controlled epidural analgesia on obstetrical and neonatal outcomes.
Local Anesthetic
Continuous bupivacaine analgesia infusion for Pelvic Organ Prolapse
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2 & 3
Kansas City, Missouri
This prospective randomized controlled study will determine the efficacy of continuous local anesthesia at decreasing pain scores compared to patient controlled analgesia for pelvic organ prolapse procedures including posterior colporrhaphy and sacrospinous ligament fixation.
PCA and pump with saline infusion for up to five days for Laparoscopic Surgery
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2
Hamilton, Ontario
The incisions used in abdominal surgery can be quite painful, requiring strong pain medications. A new pain pump that trickles small amounts of local freezing into the incision has been developed that helps numb the area so that the patient does not feel the pain for two to five days after surgery. The main research question is whether use of the pain pump will result in decreased hospital length of stay. The research is important because if the pain pump is found to be effective, it can substantially decrease the length of stay. Areas to be studied include hospital length of stay, patient's comfort post-operatively, and post-operative complications.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the 'trial drug' — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
Is there any support for travel costs?
Many of the teams running clinical trials will cover the cost of transportation to-and-from their care center.
Will I know what medication I am taking?
This depends on the specific study. If you're worried about receiving a placebo, you can actively filter out these trials using our search.
How long do clinical trials last?
Some trials will only require a single visit, while others will continue until your disease returns. It's fairly common for a trial to last somewhere between 1 and 6 months.
Do you verify all the trials on your website?
All of the trials listed on Power have been formally registered with the US Food and Drug Administration. Beyond this, some trials on Power have been formally 'verified' if the team behind the trial has completed an additional level of verification with our team.
How quickly will I hear back from a clinical trial?
Sadly, this response time can take anywhere from 6 hours to 2 weeks. We're working hard to speed up how quickly you hear back — in general, verified trials respond to patients within a few days.
